Margiela for H&M | The Fashion Minx

We are experiencing an unusual heat wave in NYC lately. (By heat wave, I mean 50 degrees in November!) I bought this gorgeous beaded white dress from Zara, and I was planning on rocking it for Fall with thick tights. This pleasant weather,however, allowed me to wear the dress bare legged with my Rag & Bone boots. I couldn’t decide what coat to wear with it, so I decided to try out two different looks. First, I paired the dress with this incredible leopard coat I got from Nordstrom! What a great buy! It’s waterproof and super warm! A leopard coat is a staple every girl should have in her closet, and at this price, it’s worth it! Second, I tried it on with the sweater I bought at the Margiella for H&M preview I attended two weeks ago. (I love how designers are making their lines more affordable for the general public by doing collaborations!) I love the look of white on white as well. What was that rule about white after Labor Day? Yea….right…..so 10 years ago! LOL BTW, I am loving my Pamela Love medium tribal spike necklace! (Last seen HERE). It’s bold, unique, and makes any outfit more special!

Last night I had the pleasure of attending the exclusive Maison Martin Margiela for H&M preview. (Thank you Karen for the invite!) What a night! The line is outlandish, artistic, edgy, and tailored for those who want to make a statement. From performance art, confetti from the mile high ceiling, celebs attending, and the incredible space, last night was an experience! Check out the photos below for an exclusive preview of the collection, and to see what I purchased last night! 😉

Love these basic black flat boots. You can wear these season after season.

The classic black bootie, updated with a clear wedge bottom. Very space age. Love.

Eye catching fusion of a glove and purse. Definitely a conversation starter.

Awesome deconstructed leather jacket. Pieced together leather panels and strips that form part leather jacket, part art piece. Love the look. It looked great on my friend Karen who modeled it for me. 😉 At $249, it’s a great price for such a cool piece!

Shoppers going crazy trying to find what they want.

GORGEOUS SPACE! Endless sea of people!

Confetti raining from ceiling!!

TVs playing performance art.

Dancers performing on sand that was thrown on the ground.

Mirrors leaning against walls while waiting on line for dressing rooms.

Awesome statement necklace.

I had to grab this reissue of this super thick, cozy sweater/jacket. I plan on wearing this over everything to lace dresses and long tunics.
